My first time holding an oar was in 7th grade when my mother encouraged me to join my local rowing team to try and get me to stay in shape. I quickly fell in love with the sport and aspire to continue at a collegiate level. I am working with the excellent coaching staff of Wappingers Crew Club and the Hudson River Rowing Association both on and off the water to improve my technique and overall strength. I am currently working towards a goal of a sub 6:30 2k pace by the end of my junior season, with a current pace of 6:44.
Similarly to my performance on the water, I excel in the classroom as well. I am currently taking 4 AP classes with a current unweighted average of 94.7.
